WoAI installer keeps a record of your installed packages in a file in the WoAI folder...'WOAIDATA' for FS9 ('WOAIDATAX' for FSX). To reset the installer to a 'new' condition you can simply remove the WOAIDATA file.

If you didn't remove the WOAIDATA file before running the installer on you new FS install, it still thinks the packages are installed. As the package(s) files are not found in your FS install, it offers the 'repair' and installs the files.
